Just like effortless dunk and beauty 😅 if lavine in diving olympic i think he win every aspect of beauty dive.

[@floridamike8433]

Aaron should have won the other day regardless he had 50s every dunk

[@j.c.c.3175]

Florida Mike that is not how the contest is ruled. Don’t matter if DJJ started with a 46, he had better overall dunks in the finals, just check one by one, even AG repeated a dunk from DJJ in the first tie-break.

Idc what anyone says Zach Lavine, *put* , *on* , *a* , *show* , and if he didn’t deserve to win then it was a damn TIE!!!

[@rich90553]

A LOT of people can do under both legs like Aaron Gordon did. And it's easier to receiving the ball after the jump than bringing the ball up by yourself. There's maybe one other person (James Flight White) who did what Lavine did at the free throw line.

[@stayl1sh713]

@@rich90553 are u joking? A lot of people can do sunk Aaron did? Thats one of the most difficult dunks at the moment

[@HaroonKhan-wd2dz]

Stayl1sh it’s not that difficult of a dunk, I’ve seen pro dunkers easily do that dunk with the ball (harder cuz it slows momentum) and they easily get it b I’ve seen no one else including pro dunkers do a between the legs from only half a step in the free throw line

[@thruthemotions]

I agree. Gordon was definitely robbed but its wrong and unfair to discredit Lavine. Should've been a tie

[@punchdreadnought8101]

asian dude Gordon is not even the second best player in Orlando. Just give Gordon that dunk contest or something and LaVine will go to the playoffs when he has a better team.

@@shawntillis8981 the dunks leading up to the final dunks... I couldn't give Zach more recognition over Gordon. Whether they both did 50 dunks or not. Put it this way, when they were both going back to back getting 50s...I myself didn't go as crazy for Zach's dunks over Gordons!
